Pros

Excellent Work/Life Balance. People are much more down to earth, sociable, and definitely not pretentious versus the major tech companies in the area. Salary + Overtime pay rocks. The company is so large that there are so many opportunities all over the country and internationally.

Cons

A large amount of the workforce is about to retire. Years of experience is a bigger factor versus work performance. The opportunities to go up are definitely there and networking goes a long way. Due to the size of the company, there are amazing programs but there are horrible programs as well; sometimes, you get unlucky and land into one of those.

Pros

Boeing is a large stable company. I feel proud of the quality of the work we do, and our products are the best in the world.

Cons

Boeing is a large bureaucratic company. There is mandatory Ethics Training, Lean+ Initiatives, and rules up the kazoo. I can live with this, but I am getting bitter that it is more common to see the people who do good quiet work being passed over for promotions while the LeanPlussers are promoted.

Pros

Benefits are very good and they used to be excellent; although they may start deteriorating if the economy does not improve soon.

Cons

Promotions are based on your ability to become buddies with particular managers. Promotions are not based on skills or capabilities or how well you perform. Company doesn't stand by what it says publicly; e.g., it stresses an education but if you have or get advanced degrees, it goes nowhere, making your hard work a waste of time and energy. There are no leaders among management. Just managers. I have not seen any "cons" in this website that I don't agree with. All appear to be accurate, imo. Very little to non-existent OTJ training. I have not had any in the time I have been with the company. Managers appear to work 40 hour stress-free work weeks while the workers are overworked and unappreciated. Not much tasking to work in the area one was trained in let alone help one grow or learn the latest standards.
